• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

RenderDoc / Google Import to Blender

S

Senchay

Hello all.

I wasnt doing anything with the SDK etc for the last 2 months and i tried to search but different answers come up. So i ask here.

The last time i did google maps object downloads i used RenderDoc to capture and import to Blender. Is this still a way to do it (for personal use)? I ask this because i canot seem to make it work anymore, RenderDoc doesnt show me the ID anymore.

I saw in the Github repo in the issues list that the dev said something about that it would be illegal and that is the reason it doesnt work? It could be very well be that i misinterpret that post.

All other topics about this are old so i dont know, what is the way ppl do it nowadays?

Are there other ways? Maybe with Bing Maps? It doesnt have to be google. Maybe i search wrong but everything i try leads me to old renderdoc tutorials. And that doesnt seem to work anymore.

Looking at flightsim.to where every week another city/object with photogrammetry is released there have to be ways still.

Any help would be great.

The cmd ist the secret, because it starts the browser with a specific switch that's allowing to show the process id of the browser so the tool can connect to it. You can also check the task manager where the process id is displayed as well.
